Melting mirrors:

[Rosalee Kleinberg]

No one else having parts of their Forrester melting? No more talk about suing Subaru? Contact me if a suit is being filed against Subaru. They can’t get away with taking no responsibility for material failure!!!

hello, i almost sued subaru but for a different reason. so im surprised about mirrors melting but what part of the car are you actually talking about???
(1) Side-View Mirror (outside) or the Rear-view mirror (inside) and lastly
(2) is the chassis around the mirror what is melting ot the actual mirror???

also depending where you live if you keep your vehicle outside and live in a place where it’s normally above 95• then a law suit would be challenging. its be much easier if you kept your car inside for it to be 100% in your favor.

In our area during the heat dome Toyota owners were reporting this as well. Official temps were in excess of 110.

if you live in an area that hot, it would damage any car at some point. I can say the qaulity of manufacturing since 2019 has decrease a lot and price have going up … with all car brands sadly. but the deal really isnt liable for a part that melted when you live in a area that has scoulding hot temps. if it melted due to some internal electrical problem then sure it would the be subarus fault. so in this case while it could just be the parts are just made with degraded qauilty then in the past which is the only thing you can really go after, i just focus on how to deflect the heat of parts that are more susceptible to damage. get sun covers for them that are white or grey or reflective. besti can think of at the moment. i would report this to —> https://www.nhtsa.gov

top right corner you can report a concern. the main reason here would be that the “safety mirrors melt creating unsafe conditions” and also make sure that you include the temp range (low - high) avg in your report.
